This is a gorgeous piece! This is the perfect size to serve just about anything on or actually use it as a display piece. It has two looped handles on two sides and the wide rim is rippled. The beautiful cobalt blue has golden fleur de lis painted on it giving it a wonderful rich French look. IT IS RARE TO FIND ANTIQUE EARTHENWARE IN "LIKE NEW" CONDITION BECAUSE OF WEAR FROM USE AND AGE. TINY GLAZE FLAKES AND CRAZING IS NORMAL AND ADDS CHARACTER TO EACH PIECE.
